to achieve economic stability lies in their own laziness and lack of ambition.
do they know that Hannity's bosses are really Arabs? Check it out. See who owns Fox news. In today's news releases.
Steele is doing all he can. He's telling the truth: That the GOP wants to return to Bush Economics.

In my opinion he is a token in the current milieu hypocritical 'racism' that is not expressed in truth. I believe Obama will not seek another term as Prez. The neocons have devastated him and his agenda on behalf of the party. Alas, I believe 'white' people and some black people have lost faith in his ability to effect the change every one so desired. Instead the reality will be a possible win for the 'conservative' party at their peril in the long run. Any win will be Pyrrhic in nature and absolutely no win for the country at large. The wedge of discontent and willed failure by the Repubs has scarred the politics and scared the people beyond redemption. What a shame!!

The Democrats at the moment are not over-qualified, but at least they seem to be desperately trying to improve. The Republicans are in such a mess that their qualifications can't be measured, which Mr. Ed Rollins seems to be saying in so many other words. I'm an Independent---which of course gives me license to snipe at both sides, and accept responsibility for little---, and I suspect the ranks of Independents will be growing, and as election days approach, we'll be leaning more and more toward the Democrats. If the Democrats don't mess it all up!

Palin, a reaction to Hillary. Tea Partiers, a reaction to no message. Congressional failures, a reaction to a total lack of ideas.

Their leaders are afraid to take a principled stand on the issues of property ownership, individual rights, and religious freedom. To mask this cowardice, these demagogues engage in an incessant "fear and smear" campaign against American ideals while the rank and file blindly march toward thier party's demise.

All joking aside I think Michael has not done a bad job at all and after the next election they may just change there minds about Mr Steele.
Mr. Ed Rollins' declaration is a shabby attempt at defending the indefensible. The GOP, at least in part, gave Michael Steele that job in the first place to affirm their big tent claim, to draw a few votes from minorities. It was as ill-advised as it was a sham. If it succeeded, they could applaud; if it failed, they've made their point anyway. As is the case with a number of Republican strategies, it continues to backfire. The truth is that the GOP has been so disingenuous for such a long time, and have such a load of clutter and baggage that they would have to start all over from ground zero to build a trustworthy camp. Yes, the firing of Michael Steele might help some, but Steele is their own creation, and regardless what they do, they'll still look like confused and stodgy right-wingers who have no idea where they're going until Coulter, Hannity and Limbaugh tells them.

He has faced this attack ever since he took over the position. He has taken a stand against these attacks and remains in his position. The Republican Party must get rid of the fanatics who have taken over the Republican Party, and allow the Party to mend. Ed Rollins needs to find another job, or start his own Far Right Party.
